This makes much more sense than saying we need a separate branch because |
| 9 |
people irresponsibly delete ebuilds in the main one, and that stable means |
| 10 |
tested/proven (and not 'changeless' as you explained) and so we need some new |
| 11 |
QA effort to certify ebuilds we want to mark as stable. (That clarification |
| 12 |
should IMHO be added to the GLEP.) |
